Bravo Comrade. We are winning in Eurasia!!

I read your post and took it in.I agree Eddy is a tool but basically I don't think he is malicious-just a poor comedian.Clearly the King Kong remarks were not only not funny but offensive given all AG had been going through. I still dislike "cancel culture" -the idea that someone become a non-person or de-platformed for one comment that has caused offence. There is a lot of Projection going on when this occurs, to use a Freudian term.In other words-'get the bad guy". And I think it's the same with this "call it out" agitprop from the Vic govt in particular. I'm not sure where in the constitution it says that state govt shall police marriages,smoking,male attitudes to women, drinking, language or any of that. They can take my taxes, sack all the consultants and parasites ,fix my transport system, hospitals and schools and stay the hell out of my life. "Calling it out" is the beginning of an informant society-a Gulag Archipelago. Actual violence is illegal-I don't buy into the verbal abuse argument the govt pedals in regards to intimate relationships. Policing physical violence is the job they are paid to do-and they can't even do that properly .So when a woman gets killed they then turn it back on society and blame "Men". Women are just as capable of verbal viscousness as men. The Police,the State should really prioritise ACTUAL violence and leave "Changing attitudes" to the individual. Spare me the multi million dollar commercial PSAs marching us towards UTOPIA. Police should police and let tax payers go to work to pay their taxes.When a woman dies form a psycho boyfriend/rapist etc the Premier should just come out and say "we failed"or "the system" because in 95 out of 100 cases that is exactly the case. The govt are not my family.They{should} work for me.I don't work for them.And I owe them nothing.

By that token, Waleed Aly should have been sacked many times because I disagree with most of his crafted speech and deliberate false assertions.In fact, you could sack most radio people based on dumb comments. How did we get to the point where we think it's ok to take peoples jobs away for something they said? It happens nearly every week. I realise Eddie probably has plenty of income so it's not such a blow to him but the culture of "cancelling" is the start of something more sinister. Who arbitrates this Cancelling? Is it the CEO of a beer company or some other major sponsor-perhaps a bookmaker? Are ALL men really responsible when a woman dies from domestic violence? I struggle with some of these leaps of logic.Modern wisdom leaves me feeling flat.

I've been wasted for more than 30 seasons.

Do you have a point to make?

I saw a game at Victoria park during which the Filth were actually spitting on, throwing beer and swearing at the fullback who was trying to stay back on his man and had to watch the play upfield. It was one of the last games ever at Vic Park, mercifully. Although Eddie has said some totally stupid things I don't think he is a racist.He's just a Boof head. Harry and Goodes have made their point but I doubt they have experienced anything near what say Sid Jackson would have endured in his time. I've had the pleasure of meeting Sid Jackson(twice)and he was an absolute gent. I think society is more civilised in some ways and less civilised in others.In general, standards of human behaviour have declined as has the emotional strength of individual men. "Sticks and Stones" was the way I was brought up but then again I love giving and receiving insults.The generation younger than me are far more sensitive to words. I've got no issue with black people pointing out racist behaviour. Having said that White woketivism is cringey.#Black Lives Matter is a total crock and #Take a Knee is also.Police brutality is one issue that has now been conflated into a number of American issues. Having said that ,H has issues that are nothing to do with Eddie or the Filth.

Without the laughs of say-The Benny Hill Show.

Cobblers.

Wasn't much to sing about.It was the most losing win I've ever seen.

The guys really fed off the energy in the crowd.

He ruined last season .Someone should have tapped him on the shoulder .Then knocked him out. Goodwin is responsible for that I suppose.

Not to mention Ashley and Martin model, regular panelist, mate of Buddy , and umpire remonstrator. He made Mohamed Ali looks like he had a few more fights left in him after the Holmes debacle.

Someone had to take over the Jordan Lewis role.

I'd be less embarrassed if I was diagnosed with Canine syphilis.

At last , A mature and sensible contrablution.

Harry sounds like he's having a riot in LA.

I can forgive the past. But I can't forgive the ear rings.

My wife and I decided we'd only smoke after sex. I've had the same pack since 1975. She buys a carton a week-go figure. No respect.....

I recently fronted the family court where the Judge decided my ex-wife should get $5000 a month. "That's very big of you , your honour ,I replied ,"If things are going well for me in Japan I'll try to send her a few bob myself."

I know how you feel .I just got back from an Egyptian business seminar. I took me a while to realise it was a pyramid scheme.

I can only take a stab in the dark.

I’ve got both tapes of our wins from 1975-1986 but not the latter period of glory.

Whom ever did Laidleys make up should be arrested and charged immediately for gross overuse of eye shadow. And Electric Blue as well!! Apart from this major indiscretion I thought he looked fairly presentable.

There will be something more to your taste scrawled on a lavatory wall in the inner suburbs of Melbourne somewhere Moon.

I'm sickened to hear it. The only consolation being you have saved the environment from detergents and unnecessary water wastage no doubt.
